Extract

The variations in sticky point of homionic soils as determined by kneading with electrolytic solutions have been examined. In the case of sodium soils, a well-marked maximum has been found in the sticky-point/electrolytic concentration curve; and the form of the curve shows parallelism with the extent of flocculation produced by varying electrolytic concentrations.
